"Martin Gleeson, with whom Long will always be linked after the pair were suspended for betting against their own team as St Helens team-mates in 2004, will be offered the chance to stay in the Super League by Salford whenever his departure from Wigan is confirmed. Gleeson has missed the champions' past three matches for an unspecified disciplinary breach and Salford's director of rugby, Steve Simms, said: "We'd certainly be interested in Martin. He's a quality player and I don't think he'd be without a club for long.""

I'm not sure they can actually lock it because its just commenting on some true press speculation. People will just have to be careful what they say about it lol.
To me the Gleeson part is possible (nay probable) if hes truly actually leaving Wigan and I suspect the first time we will know for sure that hes gone will be when he signs somewhere else. But the Long going back to Saints if Eastmond goes early? Isn't Long injured again?! haha

39110_1363272058.jpg Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go

| It would be good if a club can take him on, if he doesn't find a club then whatever problems he has could get worse without RL to keep him in check.

I know he did but I'm sure I read somewhere that he got injured again.

| This sort of thing annoys the hell out of me.
Gleeson who, imo, was our best centre acts like and idiot and leaves Wigan with two choices we either keep him in the side and almost condone what ever it is he’s done or we sack him and let him move to another club.
How in any way shape or form is that fair on Wigan? Let’s face it we’ve done nothing wrong here and now Salford pick up a dam good player probably on cheap wages and don’t even have to pay a fee for him!! We coughed up 100k for him less than 2 years ago.
Like the Hock situation before it Wigan have come off worse by losing a quality player.

surely if wigan do sack gleeson some of the fees will be recovered and at least his cap space is available for a younger player or two to fill, even a star name. we probably only had one or two good years left in him anyway.

But the thing my Mighty Wigan Town friend the squad is all set to go for this season. We’ve already signed guys like Charnely up for years to come and there aren’t any world class players out there at this stage in the season. We are now in effect a centre short for the season and if we get any injuries there or Carmont goes down we will struggle.
It probably works out in our favour for next season but I’m gutted as this season is still in it’s infancy.

At the speed which our club makes announcements, he'll probably be drawing his pension before he's wearing a Salford shirt!
The club's PR is just shocking. I'd have thought after the Hock non-announcement fiasco, they'd have mastered the art of making a statement.

well, my dearest priestman friend i do agree, in the sort term i see your point mate. lets not forget we have the potential of gaz hock coming back into the forwards towards the tail end of the year if he can prove his value to the team and fitness which COULD free up the likes of joel to work at centre which seems to be a favourable move according to this forum of late plus we have the likes of pat looking to return from injury soon, if anything this makes for a encouraging selection headache for MM in the months to come.
i do agree, daz is getting a few gripes in pats absence but we also have roberts and charnley who can come in at wing to free up goulding for the centre spot and we have plenty kids waiting on the sidelines in the youth department waiting for a bash just like charnley, mossop and tuson are making the most of at present.
nethertheless, with carmont and goulding injured we are in a spot of bother yes, but nothing to worry about when its nothing to worry about [iyet[/i, is it

To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10172.jpg |

| Well he hasn't gone yet (officially) so there may be chance he gets a warning but stays.

i doubt, no matter what the reason for gleesons' current omission from the squad, that he would come back and play for us if what MM etc say about the team ethic and code, for example the W.A.R.R.I.O.R. thing etc.
but if he did i'd be pleasantly surprised as he can obviously still offer the first team a lot, but if he has been up to no good what message does that send to the team and fans alike?
at the end of the day i'd have him back in the team no problem but whilst we don't know either way this is - actually - pointless!
